About 0H0V0KZ

0H0V0KZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a alteration procedure on the bilateral breast using an open approach with nonautologous tissue substitute. In ICD-10-PCS, alteration means modifying the anatomic structure of a body part without affecting the function of the body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to bilateral breast implant, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (85.54).

For a different body part, codes include 0H0T0KZ (right breast) and 0H0U0KZ (left breast).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 0H0V3KZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 0H0V07Z (autologous tissue substitute), 0H0V0JZ (synthetic substitute) and 0H0V0ZZ (no device).

It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 584 (Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures with CC/MCC), DRG 585 (Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures without CC/MCC), DRG 907 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with MCC), DRG 908 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries with CC), DRG 909 (Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries without CC/MCC) and DRG 957 (Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma with MCC), under the surgical categories “Breast Biopsy, Local Excision and Other Breast Procedures”, “Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries” and “Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma”.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
